Synthesizers

2500

OEM Modular Synthesizer

Supports hundreds of fast switching, high spectral purity applications

The Aeroflex 2500 series synthesizers feature superior performancenever available before. They stand at the pinnacle of a family of fre- quency synthesizers that exemplify cutting edge performance. The2500 series synthesizers are more reliable, ultra-fast, exceptionallyclean, and low cost. They are an ideal source for agile radar, radar simulators, radar upgrades, fast antenna, RCS measurements, andultra-fast ATE. The high-speed source is based on direct-synthesistechniques with generous use of sharp-rolloff bandpass filters for low-spurious performance. The instrument realization is housed ina 3U rack mountable chassis with display, keyboard, IEEE-488 inter-face, and parallel BCD interface for ultra- fast switching control. The architecture developed around direct analog frequency synthesis is inherently insensitive to vibration - there are no VCOs or sensitivephase lock loops. The components and modules supporting thearchitecture have also been selected for their rugged and tempera- ture stable qualities. The architecture has been implemented usingthe most advanced technology presently available. •Truly modular construction•Wide frequency range from a single unit•Amplitude levelling •Hop states faster than 1 Megahop/sec•Wide variety of standard and custominterface options•High performance modulation: chirp,pulse, AM and FM•Highest spectral purity For the very latest specifications visit
